Ruggeri’s Flopped Flush Dents Kapeller
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Siegfried Kapeller opened the action with a raise to 60,000 from the button, and Umberto Ruggeri defended his big blind.
The flop came 10♦A♦2♦, and Ruggeri check-called Kapeller’s 40,000 continuation bet.
On the 9♥ turn, Kapeller ramped up the pressure with a bet of 210,000. Ruggeri, unfazed, made the call.
The 4♣ river saw Ruggeri check again, and Kapeller fired a final bet of 400,000. Ruggeri called without hesitation, prompting Kapeller to reveal A♠K♥ for top pair. However, Ruggeri turned over J♦8♦ for a flopped flush, scooping the pot and leaving Kapeller visibly deflated.
